What is the name of your database and username/pass? You do know that you'll have to create a specific MySQL account to access the DB right? Check the MySQL section on cPanel.

You need to add your cPanel username to the database and username. For example, my cPanel username is wizard, my database is named phpbb and my MySQL username is wizard.

So for my phpbb installation, my database would be listed as wizard_phpbb and my username would be wizard_wizard.
